When prima ballerina Rebecca Carr returns to her old Brooklyn neighborhood, she finds her former dance instructor in serious financial trouble. Rebecca will do whatever is necessary to help save her old school. Even if it means accepting help from a man who doesn't know a toe shoe from a tutu. Jake Fleichman has the street smarts and financial savvy to rescue Miss Lilliana's school from the brink of ruin. He first meets the beautiful ballerina when he helps his grandmother out at her bakery and takes her order. To Rebecca's surprise, Jake is actually a famous New York chef, and the slim ballerina is soon swept up into the glamorous world of fine cuisine while helping him plan a fundraiser banquet. Thrown into Jake's world of zany sous chefs, nosy relatives, and a group of well meaning Brooklyn matchmakers, Rebecca learns there is life outside the ballet and that falling isn't so bad when you're in love.

A refreshing change from the cultural norm-
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
In a world where sex, drugs, and violence tops the market, a light romance that touches the heart is the missing ingredient we all need in our soups of life. The detailed and vivid images of Brooklyn, NY gives the story and characters to a certain vitality. You feel as if you've known them all your life and have seen them on the streets. For anyone who's looking for something to bring a smile to their face, Brooklyn Ballerina dances it's way to the top of my list!
Perfect mix of Brooklyn and Ballet.
